Motor Cognition:
“The figure is not intended to represent frameworks put forth by various theories (embodied cognition) and neurophysiological (mirror neurons) accounts of motor cognition.”

“Prediction of external events with our motor system: towards a new framework”
Ricarda I. Schubotz
I may quibble with details but it’s definitely in my way of thinking quite a bit. To account for congenital deaf capabilities that would otherwise require hearing in this model, neural plasticity tying into the brain-level mechanisms instead of standard equipment could easily be added to this – and perhaps someone has if i look at the references. Anyway, I like it. Motor Cognition may not explain all predictions but I think an awful lot can be tied into it as primitives.
